The Northen Hairy-Nosed Wombat

Swish, swash, swoosh, 

A bulldozer through the grasses,

Is the northern hairy-nosed wombat. 

Soft, fluffy, brown fur, 

Long whiskers and pointed ears,

Has the northern hairy-nosed wombat.

Lifespan of 30 years, 

32-kilogram weight and 35-centimetre height, 

Has the northern hairy-nosed wombat.

Eyes as dark as the night sky,

They travel as a ‘wisdom’ of wombats,

The northern hairy-nosed wombat.

Located in Australia, 

And only in Australia,

Is the northern hairy-nosed wombat. 

Helping us enrich the soils,

But their population is declining, 

We need your help to save them. 

The northern hairy-nosed wombat.
